When wife was watching my mother make a chocolate cake and the chocolate frosting(with the unsweetened chocolate), everything was fine until she added some coffee to the mix. My mother loved coffee(it really helps the chocolate), my wife can’t stand it and could not imagine that it would make the chocolate taste better.(it does)

The oleo I’m remembering was not very good tasting. During WW 2 butter was unavailable unless you owned your own cow so someone decided orange food coloring mixed with lard (rendered animal fat) would make a good substitute. It was sold unmixed and I remember my mama standing at the kitchen counter using a table fork and trying to smush a little orange pill into a pound of lard. We only got store-bought candy at Christmas in our stockings along with an orange and an apple and a handful of pecans and almonds.
